But this would mean clumpsy looking strings and a difficulty for the user. Not the mention the PitA for me to actually code this.

You are right, that sounds real messy.

To edit them, As an admin, I reserve the right to cheat.

I can't see many reasons for this but the latter wouldn't be very hard to implement whether I implement string rolling or stick with single rolls. The only problem is that with the string system the modifier would affect all rolls within the string.

As an RPGer, if a user has an item that automatically adds 2 to every damage roll and adds 2 to every attack roll, you would want a roll of something like "1d20+2" for the attack roll and "1d8+2" for the damage roll for each dice. Now, with the modifiers you are adding, I can always have them roll the attacks individually (if they get multiple attacks) and the same for damage.

They would have top roll individually anyway (at least for the attack roll) as that roll is not one that can be added to more dice.

I love the rolling system on your site. Is it possible to do both? Allow the user to choose the string method or the single roll method?

Not mission critical. However, I am already fending off questions from my users because they have to go in after posting and roll the dice. I say "let them remain confused until they grow a brain". They will get used to it soon enuf.

That, I understand.

Thank you. I love the mod so far. This looks like it has the potential to be a huge aspect to an rpg forum.
